Sundeck Platform – Small
$28.80 (inc GST)
A handy, easy to use ‘Sundeck’ Platform for your bird to relax on. The arms hook onto the horizontal bars of the cage and the platform sits flat below it. These are versatile items that suit most cage designs. Pop this platform high up in your birds cage as a nice roosting spot or at another level, with foot toys as a play area for your parrot. It can also be handy to place this near to a bolt-on foraging toy to provide access to that level of the cage. Popular with all birds, these are great for handicapped parrots, with mobility or stability issues too.
This is the small platform, which measures 20cm wide and 16cm deep. The arms are 10cm tall (the platform will sit 10cm below the horizontal bars that it hooks onto). They come with plain, black powder coated bars which you can safely use ‘as is’ or cover yourself with native bark or similar. The Large Sundeck is also available in the store, as is the sturdy bolt on Corner Shelf Platform.
Most people choose for me to attach a piece of woven seagrass mat onto the platform for a chewable, safe & comfy perching spot for their bird. Replacement mats can be purchased separately for when the mat becomes soiled or chewed. If you choose to ‘DIY’ with mats from elsewhere, be sure to wash and thoroughly dry the mats first. I wash these mats in bird safe, veterinary disinfectant (F10) before use.

My canary, Frankie, loves this sundeck! I’ve covered it in seagrass and he really enjoys hopping around on it, foraging for little seeds that I tuck between the seagrass threads for him. The poor little guy has some issues with his feet, so it’s nice for him to have a flat place to perch when his feet need a rest from the wood perches. I find it really easy to clean too, I just give it a good scrub with some vinegar, hot water and a brush and then hang it in the sun to dry.

My cockatiel absolutely loves her sundeck! She is only a baby and has trouble with perching occasionally so she loves relaxing her feet and standing on the sun deck! I chose the option of putting the seagrass mat on it and she loves chewing on it and resting on the platform. It’s super easy to clean too! A definite must have!

This little deck is just the cutest! I chose the seagrass mat option and hide little toys and treats in it. I love seeing my little green cheeks hanging on it!

A very fussy budgie has taken to her new window watching platform very well! Took 2 weeks to ensure it wasn’t a budgie eating monster but glad to say it has been given the tick of approval.
Do recommend ordering a backup mat when buying the platform as the seagrass is half missing from chewing.

The sundeck platforms work so well but right now Bubbles destroys them so fast. It is good that I found them at Bunnings and bought 3 sea grass mats.
I put them in the washing machine with disinfection and 3 rinses before cutting and attaching to the platforms. It’s strange that Squeak the male peachface doesn’t try to destroy them though. Hopefully when Bubbles is no longer hormonal, they will last longer.

My cockatiel absolutely loves this platform! I will definitely be purchasing again once I have a bigger cage!

My cockatiel spends the majority of her time on her sundeck now! She eats, sleeps & plays on it! Great price too!!

I just brought some small sun decks to put into my Alexandrines indoor play aviary. He absolutely LOVES them! He loved his large sun deck which he has had for a while now but he is just as happy on the smaller ones as he climbs around the aviary. Highly recommend this product!

Perfect sized platform for my cockatiel (who has 2!), and when placed high in the cage with a seagrass mat it’s her favourite place to sleep or eat treats. This is by far the best value and easiest place to order them that I could find in my searches.

My Harry (a lovely blue budgie) loves his sundeck which I got some years ago. His mother squashed one of the parts of his claws when he was still in the nest. It provides wonderful respite for him and it’s warmer with the seagrass matting on it during these super cold days Thankfully he’s an excellent flyer and lander. Much warmer than just sitting or perching on the matching rungs of his flight cage. He has started to chew ithe matting which is great for him but I’m getting another now for inside his cage for his 6th birthday so he can rest on it when he has to be locked in late at night. his outside sundeck is the first place he hops to when I open his cage door in the morning. It’s the best safe perching area ever. He prefers the sundeck to even the natural calistemon perches in his cage.
